This CD-ROM is no longer available. It has been replaced by the 'Chemistry Set 2000' CD-ROM. The above details are for reference only
This new CD-ROM from New Media draws on five years experience to make sure that its database is Y2K compliant and is optimised for GCSE and A-level chemistry. It follows on from the Chemistry Set published in 1993 and sold in more than 35 countries world wide.
For demonstration to a class or group the videos and interactive 3 D molecules play full screen size; bookmarking facilities enable the user to put together a sequence of screens; and user spreadsheets and graphs.
The CD-ROM can be used as a personal reference tool: the new search facility allows the user to type in a word and then select the best reference from those displayed; and user book marking of key topics for further use.
For students to use as a learning tool for individual and group study: students can seek information without having to know where it will be on the disc; easier and more informative browsing; and clear illustrated exposition of key concepts, some with video clips and animations.
The chemistry set 2000 CD-ROM also contains: over 500,000 words; 684 terms explained through a glossary; 188 maps-one for every country in the world; 677 photographs of minerals, great chemists, chemistry in use etc; 816 3D molecular images; 323 video clips: and 93 graphic images.

The following is a collection of CD-ROMs designed to compliment teaching in the classroom.
This CD-ROM enables students to analyse data on the elements quickly and easily. Whether students wish to find out how melting points vary through the periodic table or how the densities of the halogens change as they go down the group, students will find that Elements Analyser will take the leg work out of plotting graphs and drawing tables.

It is a fact that students often struggle with the theory behind rates of reaction experiments. These interactive animations enable students to alter the temperature, concentration or surface area and show how the rate to reaction changes. Graphs show how the concentrations of the products and reactants change. The CD-ROM enables teachers and students alike to run theoretical experiments in advance of classroom practice or to confirm experimental results.

New Media have produced the AS chemistry CD-ROM to provide a collection of multimedia resources designed specifically to help students taking the new AS Chemistry course. An integrated web site gives further support with news, tests and your questions answered. Two editions of the AS Chemistry CD Rom are produced: a school edition licensed for classroom teaching; and the home addition licensed for private study.
Stepping into the world of advanced chemistry can be bewildering experience. The AS Chemistry CD-ROM and web site will help students identify clearly what they have to know and understand. Students may buy individual CD-ROMs, or the school can buy a network CD-ROM. Either way the multimedia and interactive activities will provide a powerful accessory to their learning.
The CD-ROM provides: key experiments and chemical procedures on video; molecular and ionic structures with interactive 3 D models; database of properties of elements and compounds; the ability to explore trends in data with simple but powerful analysis tools; the ability to bookmark or export any resource for project work; and the ability to download slide shows from the Web site on key topics.
The web site: FAQ's to some of the more difficult aspects of AS Chemistry; ask Andrew - post a question to Andrew Hunt, the editor of the CD-ROM and author of the AS Chemistry textbook; download slide shows which give guided tours through key topics; quizzes prepared by Andrew Hunt; latest information on the new AS course; current news and views as related to AS Chemistry.
This edition of the the AS Chemistry CD-ROM is licensed for classroom teaching. It comes complete with a site licence for use on a school network or stand-alone machines. Teachers and lecturers who buy the school edition will also get access to a special area of the AS Chemistry web site for information on getting the most out of the AS Chemistry course, news on the curriculum and a teachers discussion forum. The cost covers a site licence, network software, the CD-ROM and access to teaches web site.
